El blanc és estiu, el blanc és llum, el blanc
és la Carmen. Jo identifico aquest color amb ella, amb el seu estil i la seva personalitat,
al meu blog aquest color està reservat per a ella.
El meu blog té amics i amigues, preferències
estètiques i personals, alguns mites... però per damunt de tot això està la
Carmen, la meva sòcia de blog, la propietària del meu blog associat, i la meva
amiga de l’ànima. La Carmen té una
personalitat, un caràcter, una filosofia de vida, una sensibilitat i, sens dubte,
una bellesa, que la situen, sens cap mena de dubte, en el top de les meves
preferències estètiques i emocionals.
Tots i totes ho sabeu, ho he repetit i ella no
ho amaga, la Carmen té 64 anys,
complerts el dia abans del meu aniversari, ella va néixer el dia 11 i jo el 12
de febrer, encara que de diferent any. Als seus 64 anys la Carmen conserva tota
la bellesa, la figura i l’agilitat, que la converteixen en una dona que ho és
tot menys invisible. La seva vida saludable, la seva alimentació vegana, la seva
professió de professora de dansa, i, especialment, el seu caràcter positiu i
alegre, la fan aparèixer absolutament meravellosa. Alguns diuen que sembla més
jove, jo em resisteixo a això, no m’agrada comparar bellesa i atractiu amb
joventut. La Carmen és una preciosa dona madura de 64 anys, aquesta és la meva
filosofia, i la del meu blog...
Entre tots dos hem preparat un petit recull
dels seus looks en blanc, sense dates, sense temporades ni anys. Creiem que el
blanc és intemporal, i l’equilibri estètic també. Blanc, llum, suavitat,
dolçor, tendresa, bellesa, somriure, pura vida... la Carmen.
Ella ha preparat un petit text per al post, no
us el tradueixo al català, segur que entendreu el que us vol dir. En algunes fotos ella també ha afegit petits comentaris personals. Desitjo que us agradi el post, que tanca temporada al meu blog, torno al setembre. Bon estiu!
"My dear
friend and blogging partner, Josep-Maria is a style expert. He grew up
surrounded with fashion. His mother was a seamstress: sewing beautiful dresses,
especially for parties and weddings. He is well known in fashion blogging
circles because of this fashion blog and commenting on many women’s fashion
blogs and Instagram. Josep-Maria features elegant and stylish mature women.
We met through blogging, Josep-Maria was one of my first commentators. I
was thrilled when I received his first comment on my blog! I was new to
blogging and it has always been encouraging to read his kind and thoughtful
comments. I sincerely appreciate his support.
Sense Corbata/No Tie is better than a magazine, with real-life
fashionable women. All the women he features appreciate being selected for his
weekly posts. Blogging takes time and effort, and being included in his
wonderful reviews is very rewarding.
Josep-Maria has chosen to feature my white outfits which is my favourite
summer colour. This look always makes me feel cool and fresh as a daisy".
